Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
I have been looking for front and rear bumpers for my 2006 Mega Cab because the sheet metal OEM "bumpers" are structurally worthless.
On my last truck I had the Ranchhand Bullnose front bumper and their standard rear bumper. Good Bumper, good powdercoating, no problems; completely satisfied. I called Ranchhand for my 2006 and they said they will not be making a rear bumper that keeps the factory hitch. The bumper they will make for 2006 will only accomodate 500 pounds of tonque weight unless the ball is mounted directly to the bumper. This creates mismatched levels between the trailer and the truck. Oh well.
I looked and read about Road Armor and the overwhelming TDR response was lousy powdercoating and even worse customer service. Oh well.
I have also looked at Reunel, Ute, Off Road alloys, Denver Off Road and all the rest that have been posted, commented on and by TDR members. I am not a fan of the chrome, stainless and polished aluminum look.
So what I have decided on is http://www.fabfours.com/ the front bumper comes with the lights included and the rear bumper allows the use of the factory hitch.
